Merry Allston Christmas! If you’re partaking, may the previous tenants of your new residence be long gone and may the meter maids mind their own business.

This video is evidence of a high-tech engineering success story. I strongly disagree with the guy who posted it calling it “red neck couch moving.” If MIT were in Allston, I know that Allston Christmas would be a little bit more orderly with all the engineering kids moving furniture more efficiently than Ross and Rachel.

I myself am not an engineer. That is why I a cracked a box spring in half one Allston Christmas, to prevent holding up the entire building. I am also not a great planner. That is why I once switched units on Allston Christmas between 10 PM on August 31 and 4:30 AM on September 1. Moving in the middle of the night like the Baltimore Colts baby.
